With the plummeting SAN value, I can only work hard to watch the drama

Chapter 49 Ceremony
Sophie's family lives in a high-end residential area.

There are all townhouses inside, quiet and elegant, and shaded by trees.

Although it is not as good as Zhou Cheng's house, compared to Shen Xiu's previous residence, one is in the top class society and the other is in the slums.

This can't help but make Shen Xiu sigh in his heart, as expected, those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black, the rich play with the rich, and the poor are surrounded by poor people.

However, thinking of her current home, Shen Xiu regained her confidence.

Why, you live in villas, and mine is not bad.

There is also Jia Jia, who is positioned at the demon level, which is far beyond the comparison of a few strong security guards.

Shen Xiu glanced at the building in front of her that looked more like a gatehouse than a gate of a community, and walked away.

Not surprisingly, he was stopped again.

Not to mention the high-end small difference, the greening is good, and the security work is also good.

Before Shen Xiu approached, a tall, burly security guard with arms as thick as an ordinary woman's thigh came out of the security booth.

He had a nightstick pinned to his waist, and with one hand on it, he glanced up and down at the unfamiliar faces walking by, and asked from a distance:
"Who are you looking for?"

Compared with the security guard in the villa area, this guy's attitude is far worse.

Shen Xiu raised her eyebrows, and was about to say "I'm looking for your second uncle".

No, another security guard who was a little smaller and older came out.

After the middle-aged security guard walked out, although he glanced at Shen Xiu first, there was a smile on his face.

He gave the tall security guard a wink, and asked with a smile:

"Sir, who are you looking for?"

As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling face with your hand.

Shen Xiu swallowed back what she originally wanted to say, and said lightly:

"Sophie."

"Sophie?"

The middle-aged security guard seemed to have no memory of this name and was a little confused.

But the tall security guard sneered and said:

"Looking for Sophie, you go to the supermarket, what are you doing here?"

As soon as these words came out, Shen Xiu and the middle-aged security guard fell silent, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little strange.

The middle-aged security guard gave him a hard look and said:

"Isn't it time for patrol? Why are you still hanging around?"

After speaking, he looked at Shen Xiu again.

"Sir, can you tell me which household it is?"

Shen Xiu slapped her head and suddenly came to her senses.

Indeed, there are at least a few hundred people living in this community, and it is impossible to know who is who just by name.

Immediately, he told which building Sophie lived in.

The middle-aged security guard nodded and signaled Shen Xiu to wait a while before going to the security booth by himself.

Shen Xiu looked from afar and saw him picking up the phone, as if he was confirming something.

After a while, the middle-aged security guard came over and said apologetically:

"I'm sorry sir, Miss Su does live here, but I don't know if it's because she and her family haven't come back yet, and the phone hasn't been connected."

The implication of this is that there is no way to confirm whether you really know Sophie's family.

Shen Xiu frowned, and didn't intend to talk to the other party, she said bluntly:
"I'm not lying to you. I'm actually Sophie's colleague. She hasn't come to work for a long time, and she can't get through the phone. My boss specially asked me to come and ask if something happened."

The middle-aged security guard seemed to feel something was wrong, his expression changed slightly, he hesitated for a while, and asked Shen Xiu to wait again.

He took out his cell phone and made a call.

Hearing him call the manager on the phone, it should be the property manager.

A few minutes later, the middle-aged security guard hung up the phone anxiously and said:
"Sir, when did Miss Su not go to work?"

Shen Xiu thought for a while and said:

"It's been almost half a month."

"It's been so long? I'm in trouble now."

When the middle-aged security guard heard this, his face became even uglier.

Seeing his appearance, how could Shen Xiu not know what he was thinking.

It must have been confirmed by the property manager that Sophie's family has not shown up for a long time.

It's good that nothing happened, but if something happened at home, then their property management and security team are to blame.

Immediately, Shen Xiu said:

"Don't worry about other things, just take me to Sophie's house."

The middle-aged security guard suddenly became distracted, and he would do what Shen Xiu said.

Leading Shen Xiu quickly to a small two-story western-style building, he pointed to the house with the door wide open in the front courtyard and said:
"That's it."

Shen Xiu turned her head to have a look, then strode over.

When I came to the small foreign building, I saw that the door was also concealed, and my heart sank.

He took out a pair of pure black gloves from his pocket, put them on, and gently opened the door.

The moment the door opened, the scene inside the room came into view, and Shen Xiu's pupils shrank suddenly, his face was ashen, and deep anger ignited in his heart.

The middle-aged security guard who was following behind Shen Xiu was about to enter, but found that Shen Xiu was standing at the door, motionless, poking her head out of curiosity.

This look frightened him silly.

I saw that the house was in a mess, all kinds of furniture and furnishings were dumped on the ground, glass shards and porcelain shards fell all over the ground, and the whole house seemed to be swept away by a hurricane.

On the floor of the living room, a man and a woman were kneeling and sitting on the ground covered in blood, holding up their heads, as if looking into the distance.

The screen is indescribably scary.

Under the two of them, there is a pattern that looks like eyes, which is exactly the same as the one in the pamphlet Wang Shufen gave.

How could Shen Xiu not know what this meant? She spit out four words from between her teeth:

"Foresight Church."

The middle-aged security guard was startled, his face was horrified, and his body couldn't stop shaking.

"Who did this?"

He trembled to get the walkie-talkie hanging on his waist, but because he was too scared, he missed one of them, and the walkie-talkie fell to the ground and rolled into the room.

The walkie-talkie was on the ground one meter away, but the middle-aged security guard had no intention of picking it up, but just looked at it in fear.

Shen Xiu walked into the house, picked up the walkie-talkie, but did not return it to the original owner, walked outside the living room in a few steps, and carefully looked at the pair of corpses.

It was a middle-aged man and woman, and Sophie was not among them.

"Sophie's parents?"

A thought flashed through Shen Xiu's mind.

At this time, an urgent shout from the security guard suddenly came from behind:
"Come out!"

Shen Xiu turned her head, threw the walkie-talkie over, told him to report quickly, took out her mobile phone, and called Zhou Cheng.

"how is the situation?"

As soon as the phone was connected, before Shen Xiu could speak, Zhou Cheng took the lead to ask questions.

"It's bad." Shen Xiu hesitated and said, "People from the Vision Sect have been here, and it seems that some kind of ceremony was held."

"ceremony?"

Zhou Cheng's voice suddenly became much colder.

However, Zhou Cheng was careful and found that Shen Xiu said "very bad" instead of directly saying that Sophie was dead, so he asked:

"What's the specific situation?"

Shen Xiu briefly described the situation at the scene to Zhou Cheng.

"Didn't you find any trace of Sophie?" Zhou Cheng's voice came from the phone again.

Shen Xiu didn't make a sound, walked around the living room carefully, searched around on the second floor, but didn't find Sophie, and then said:

"She's not here."

As soon as the voice fell, there was a sudden noise and exclamation downstairs.

Shen Xiu frowned, told Zhou Cheng that there was something to deal with here, so she hung up the phone and walked downstairs.
